Thanks For Your Help

Kind Regards
TIME LORD

Most good independents will have no problem looking after the 125-the engine is simple to work on.

Ever considered servicing it yourself? You can easily change the oils, clean/replace the air filtercheck all the connections and consumables, such as brake pads, chain and sprocket, checking and greasing bearings etc. BSA-Regal should have most the the parts you will want or need.

You can always find a decent dealer to do what you can't, or are not yet confident of doing (like tappet adjustment). plus, and absolutely no disrespect to Jack Nice (I bought my bike there), but you will nowthat the work has been done doiing it yourself. Where abouts in London are you?-probably seen you about, as i do not see many MZ125's around.

To the the powers that be for this site, thank you!
I've learned alot about my '01 Baghira and the company that produced it from this forum.
I'm new to this computers, the internet and this forum. But my years in the saddle extend over 38 years, the best of my life...
I look forward to gleening any and all information about supermoto in general and this fantastic bike!
Living in the mountains of central California all my life, hey, this bike is grins galore!!!
Highest Regards,
Robert

welcome
and if you think the baggie is fun do not pass up a ride on one of the 125cc bikes my rt125 plays sweet music on a winding road at 10,000 rpm
yes ten thousand rpm and still runs fine with 14,250 miles in 4 years
just hope i can get parts when i need to fix it in the future

Dave,
Sounds great, never the less I'm thinking of MZ Raptor sickness that could turn 10K with 100+HP and torque well beyond! TI cases, crio treated sickness...carbon everywhere! Don't forget TI frame and sub! Carbon wheels...we are the the dreamers of the dreams-just backin' it in!
Highest Regards,
OMC
(GOOD FUN)
